Favorite non-Rolex you own?

Curious what everyone’s favorite non-Rolex watch is that they own and wear (alongside their regular Rolex rotations)? Happy Holidays!

OP - mine are shown on my signature below. They’re usually watches I find of horological interest, whether it be historically speaking or the beginning or end of a design era.

Favorite non-Rolex you own?

I don't have to think hard about this; it's definitely my Tudor Royal 41 with diamonds and an add on magnifier.

Who added the magnifier for you? I would like to do that but don't want to botch it up myself. I like this watch but I wonder if it will eventually be upgraded to 70 hours power reserve.

Vintage Tudor sub now, also happens to be my latest addition.

Used to be the speedy but lost respect and interest after it started seeing condensation inside the crystal in normal usage <1 yr into ownership :/

A beautiful solid gold 1973 Omega Genève automatic inherited from my father. She runs beautifully, roughly +4-7 secs per day! I never bother setting the date because it's just too small to see and I don't need it. That´s the original box, too.
